Answer:
Let us assume that 6+√2 is rational.
That is , we can find coprimes a and b (b≠0) such that
Since , a and b are integers , is rational ,and so √2 is rational.
But this contradicts the fact that √2 is irrational.
So, we conclude that 6+√2 is irrational.

Step-by-step explanation:
let it be rational
so 6+√2= a/b
\sqrt{2} = \frac{a}{b} - 6
\sqrt{2} = \frac{a - 6b}{b}
And now as we know that √2 is irrational
•°• irrational ≠ rational
HENCE WE CAN SAY THAT
6+√2 is irrational.....❤
